“The Navy had selected 31 sailors to promote from the rank of captain to one-star admiral, but Hegseth recently intervened to strike nine people from the list, including three women and two Black men”. Maybe they just weren’t very good.

ntervened to strike nine people from the list, including three women and two Black men”.

That leaves four white guys dropped from the list.

Maybe another fair question is to ask how all 31, including the women and blacks, were put on the list in the first place...

Because DEI and quotas is why many were put on advancement lists...
